My Best Day Ever

My Best Day Ever- 'Tales from Cabin 14'

"If you are really lucky you might, once in your life, have a day of fishing that clearly transcends any you may have had or are likely to experience. Not just a day where you catch more and bigger fish than you ever have - but a day when the weather was perfect, you were in good company and you knew without a doubt that something special was happening - perhaps never to be repeated again. Now, if you claim to have had more than one day like this, then you are truly a formidable angler and a damn good liar as well.

It’s fair to say that over the years I have had some very good days on the water. Caught more than one hundred walleye in a day more times than I can remember, fished in a place with so many lake trout, they would school in the wash of your propeller and, together with a long time fishing buddy, caught and released 177 pike in just over six hours. While those were certainly great days - nothing - and I mean nothing tops July 19, 1991 while fishing in MacIntosh Bay on Great Bear Lake in the Northwest Territories.
